The Ins and Outs of Vertical Gardening

While it would be nice if everyone had the acreage to grow their gardens as large as they wanted, the reality is that most people don’t have a lot of space, especially good and sunny space. For those who love in apartments or rent their homes, gardening can seem like even more of just a pipe dream. However, with a few products from the hardware store, some favorite plants, and a bit of ingenuity, anyone can turn even the smallest square footage into a vertical dream garden.

1. PVC Pipe Garden #1

With just a few interesting PVC pieces (such as the “Y” connectors pictured here), you could easily attach this structure to any wall, fence, or patio for herbs or other interesting hanging or bushy plants. As you can see in this picture, the pipes are even situated so that they drain effortlessly into the storm draining on the ground. You could even angle yours off the edge of your deck if you preferred.

2. PVC Pipe Garden #2

Another PVC pipe garden, with a slight twist. Instead of connecting pieces in a horizontal panel, this gardener took a single pipe and had used a hole saw to cut the planter holes in it. Then she inserted it into the ground and filled it up with soil, adding each plant before adding more soil. It is very likely that she also attached some sort of screen in between each layer to hold the soil and plants into place
